Difference between Galactose and Lactose

Galactose vs. Lactose

Galactose (galacto- + -ose, "milk sugar"), sometimes abbreviated Gal, is a monosaccharide sugar that is about as sweet as glucose, and about 30% as sweet as sucrose. Lactose is a disaccharide.

Similarities between Galactose and Lactose

Galactose and Lactose have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): -ose, Anomer, Condensation reaction, Disaccharide, Enzyme, Galactose, Glucose, Hermann Emil Fischer, Lac operon, Lactase, Louis Pasteur, Marcellin Berthelot, Pyranose, Sucrose.

-ose

The suffix -ose is used in biochemistry to form the names of sugars.

Condensation reaction

A condensation reaction is a class of an organic addition reaction that proceeds in a step-wise fashion to produce the addition product, usually in equilibrium, and a water molecule (hence named condensation).

Disaccharide

A disaccharide (also called a double sugar or bivose) is the sugar formed when two monosaccharides (simple sugars) are joined by glycosidic linkage.
